    Default Who controls the European Union? Who created it? And why was its creation possible after the collapse of the USSR?

    I think everyone has heard that dollar bills contain many interesting facts.



    Transnational companies that rule the economy. The era of capitalism is ending

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/sho...=1#post1685213

    For example, the creators of the one-dollar bill design had a love for the number "13":
    ▶️ there are 13 arrows in the eagle's claw,
    ▶️ 13 olive leaves,
    ▶️ 13 olives on a branch,
    ▶️ 13 stars above the eagle's head,
    ▶️ 13 letters in the inscription "E Pluribus Unum",
    ▶️ 13 brick levels of the pyramid,
    ▶️ 13 letters in the inscription "Annuit Coeptis"
    ▶️ and 13 tufts of grass next to the pyramid.

    Also on the dollar, someone saw:
    💵 the Maltese cross of the Templars,
    💵 the Star of David.
    💵 Dollars are folded in such a way that they get images of aliens,
    💵 some Lucifers,
    💵 reptilians.
    💵 Even, supposedly, if you crumple a $20 bill, you can read the future on it.
    *As an example, they saw the September 11 terrorist attack and the coronavirus epidemic on it.

    In principle, there are a lot of interesting things there. And I can do a separate analysis about the dollar if you ask.

    In general, I think everyone has heard about this currency.
    But besides it, there are also reserve ones. So to speak, international currencies.



    Namely, the second currency after the dollar is the euro.

    This is also a Western currency, and, by the way, if you fold it in a certain way, namely fold it in half and put it against a mirror, you can see an image of a horned creature with a malicious grin.



    Let's deal with this devilish piece of paper today:
    ❓ Who issues it?
    ❓ Who controls it?
    ❓ And why was it invented?

    Of course, it's not just like that.

    THE REAL OWNERS OF THE EURO
    The euro is the official currency of 20 countries of the European Union, used by at least 340 million Europeans.

    ▶️ Let me remind you that the European Union is an association of European countries that was created in 1992.
    ▶️ Currently, it includes 27 countries.
    ▶️ They have a common foreign policy and a market where goods, services, capital and people move freely.

    The European Union in the political sense, with few exceptions, is the same notorious West that robbed humanity for 500 years and thanks to this ensured a relatively comfortable life for itself.

    Thinking that the eurozone has become rich not because of robberies, but as a result of some special policy, many countries strive to get there, believing that they will be taught how to live richly.

    Some countries accept and receive crumbs from the loot. And some wait in the anteroom for several decades.
    Look at Turkey, which tried to join the EU for a quarter of a century and to no avail.

    But as the world frees itself from the Western yoke, when it becomes increasingly difficult to rob, the standard of living in Europe will fall sharply, and people will start fleeing from there, rather than going there.

    In principle, this is already happening.

    ❓ How does Europe rob the rest of the world?

    👉 Elementary. As an example - through the euro currency, which will be discussed later.

    ⏩ The euro, like the dollar, is imposed on the whole world, and you can buy anything anywhere with it.
    ⏩ The euro is also printed without control, without reference to assets. That is, it is also a simple candy wrapper.
    *For example, during the difficult Covid period, the European Union printed about 4 trillion euros and simply swept the goods they needed off the world markets, thereby accelerating price growth and creating a shortage of goods around the world.

    This is how Europe robs the rest of the world - through the euro.

    ⏩ The euro appeared in 1999, destroying many national currencies. Among them were such respectable guys as the German mark, the French franc, the Italian lira.

    Since the euro replaced them, it immediately became important and took second place after the dollar in the currency ranking.

    The euphoria from the euro did not last long. The countries of the eurozone lost a significant part of their sovereignty. In fact, they lost control over their financial system, which ended up in the hands of the European Central Bank.

    As Rothschild said, give me the right to print the country's money, and I don't care what laws are written in it.

    So, in the late 2000s, all European countries were deprived of the right to print money, i.e. they were deprived of sovereignty with all the accompanying attributes.

    🔸 Take Greece, for example.
    After joining the eurozone, it began to take out cheap loans.
    But in 2008, the global crisis hit, and there was nothing to pay with.
    Greece could not turn on the printing press or simply devalue the currency to soften the blow.
    The country was forced to save: raise taxes and cut salaries, which were already beggarly in euros.


    🔸 Portugal,
    🔸 Italy,
    🔸 Spain found themselves in a similar situation.

    The main task of the European Central Bank is to maintain price stability in the eurozone.
    It also prints euros.

    ⛔️ Unlike the US Federal Reserve, which is a private organization, the European Central Bank belongs, so to speak, to its branches - the central banks of European countries.
    ⛔️ At the same time, the Bank is completely independent from the governments of the countries. It is believed that it is managed by the member countries of the Eurozone.
    ⛔️ But in fact, decisions are made by the Board, which consists of 6 people, including the President.
    ⛔️ But who gives orders to the President is an interesting question.

    Let's take former President Mario Draghi.

    Before taking this position, Draghi was the CEO of Goldman Sachs, one of the largest banks in America.

    That is, this man is closely connected with the owners of money - the main shareholders of the US Federal Reserve System.
    because Goldman Sachs is one of such shareholders.

    By the way, it was this bank that hooked Greece on the debt needle. They provided loans in a special way that hid the growing debt.

    Since then, Europe has been in a debt crisis. And eurozone officials are forced to agree with all the actions of the Central Bank, which blackmails them with financial collapse.

    The same Draghi poured half a trillion euros into the economy to save European banks without any approvals.

    But it did not get better. Europe still has not figured out how to solve problems, and not extinguish them with new money.

    * So, in order to overcome the consequences of the pandemic, the Bank simply went and printed money in the amount of $ 4.6 trillion.

    Many experts claim that the President of the European Bank acts in the interests of the US Federal Reserve.

    And, as it turned out, for good reason, because Draghi is a member of the G-30, or “Group of Thirty”. This is an informal community of heads of large financial institutions, where they come up with recommendations for world banks.

    And then they start implementing them.
    The group was created by banker Jeffrey Bell in 1978 with the participation of the Rockefeller Foundation.

    That is, the Rockefellers and their supporters are behind the G-30.

    When this was revealed, EU officials demanded that the head of the European Central Bank cease participating in the G-30.
    Because there is a clear conflict of interest.

    ⏩ Firstly, the group includes representatives of banks that are supervised by the European Central Bank. Such secret contacts between the regulator and the supervised are prohibited.

    ⏩ Secondly, the Central Bank is supposedly independent, but above it there is a group that is not only not controlled by anyone, but whose existence many did not even know about.

    Hence, there are assumptions that the banking system of the European Union is controlled not by the Central Bank, but by this group. The President simply follows its instructions.

    Some EU officials wanted to prohibit the President of the Eurozone Central Bank from participating in such organizations. But Draghi was adamant, saying that he had participated and would participate.

    The case migrated to the European Parliament. But they could not do anything there either.
    As a result, Draghi won for himself and subsequent presidents the full right to participate in any secret organizations. Allegedly in order to develop the right monetary policy.

    In simple terms, Europe has finally lost its sovereignty and has come under the complete control of the owners of money.

    At one time, the United States was not very happy with the euro. But it turned out that they were just being disingenuous.

    The European Union was, in principle, a project of the Anglo-Saxons and the United States to colonize Europe.

    And the introduction of the euro was only part of it.

    The European Union was created just after the liquidation of the USSR, when the United States became the main hegemon on Earth.

    At the time of the creation of the euro and the European Union, the world was unipolar - American. And naturally, such a geopolitical project could not go against the interests of the Americans.

    They imposed a single currency on Europe, which they took under their control.

    Thereby, after the liquidation of the USSR, depriving its ally - Europe of independence, so that there would be no strong competitor (even if it was an ally) and so that in the future it would be possible to govern this territory.
    Which we are perfectly observing today.

    SEMI-COLONY OF THE NEW WORLD

    ❓ Why was the European Union created?

    👉 Official history says that the desire to unite has tormented Europeans for a long time. And this is exclusively their idea.

    This is how the German Emperor Wilhelm II outlined his goal at the beginning of the 20th century: “The United States of Europe against America.”

    Calls for unity continued to sound.

    They were afraid of three things:
    🔸 a new war,
    🔸 the Bolsheviks
    🔸 and US hegemony.

    It itched especially strongly after the Second World War. Europe wanted to become stronger than ever. And then its desire was openly picked up from the other side, i.e. from America.

    ❓ And why is that?

    👉 Because World War II did not accomplish one of its main tasks: it did not destroy the Soviet Union.

    And here I would like to add about Hitler. Much has already been said about the Third Reich being a project of the Anglo-Saxons.

    The Nazi regime had two main goals:
    ▶️ Firstly, to destroy and enslave the USSR.
    ▶️ And, secondly, to unite Europe into a single financial organism, where national business would be controlled by German capital.
    And on this basis, to mold the Europeans into one nation.

    Hitler himself declared that he was fighting the USSR as the leader of Europe, which had united around him from the "Russian barbarians".

    ❌ On his side were 22 national SS divisions - 522 thousand volunteers from different countries.
    Let's add resources here.
    ❌ For example, every 6th Wehrmacht truck was built in factories in the occupied territories.
    ❌ Every 3rd shell was made from Swedish ore.
    ❌ And Leningrad was shelled during the blockade by Czech "Škoda" and French "Le Creusot".

    It turns out that at all times Germany was the center of European integration.

    But what is curious is that during the heyday of its power, it was never able to unite Europe. And after the war, in a state of complete devastation, it was able to, when it became the leading country of the European Union.

    ❓ And it seems, how so?

    👉 And so, this project is far from European and it was not created for the greatness of Europe.
    And in order to make it a puppet of the USA.


    And under their obvious control, everything worked out.

    In 1948, the Marshall Plan came into effect. This is when the Americans allocated $13 billion for the restoration of 17 countries.

    In fact, it was a deal: US aid in exchange for concessions from Europe.

    This is how Washington brought the right politicians to power.

    And the right ones were those who supported the idea of ​​the “United States of Europe”. The main part of the project was the dismantling of national sovereignties and the establishment of supranational governance.

    You can say it more simply: the American project “United Europe” is the transformation of the Old World into a semi-colony of the New World.

    *The Old World is Europe, and the New World is America, if anyone didn’t know.

    In 2000, the US declassified documents from which it became clear how exactly the idea of ​​unity was imposed.

    ⛔️ In 1948, the "American Committee for a United Europe" was created, headed by William Donovan, the head of the Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor of the CIA.
    ⛔️ His deputy was Allen Dulles, who later became the head of the CIA.
    ⛔️ The first director of the CIA, Walter Smith, was also on the committee's board.

    As it turned out, the committee, headed by intelligence, sponsored the organization "European Movement".

    Thus, in 1958, the committee covered 53% of its expenses. The "European Movement" itself was already calling for the creation of a political, economic and monetary union in Europe.

    It was financed secretly, through charitable organizations - the Rockefeller Foundation and the Ford Foundation.


    Rockefeller Foundation and Ford Foundation

    In total, from 1949 to 1959, the Americans spent $50 million on the activities of such movements.

    It is noteworthy that the US plans for a “United Europe” were only foreseen on the continent. Great Britain was supposed to be autonomous. A kind of link between the US and Europe. So its exit from the European Union only means a return to the concept as it was originally.

    A major breakthrough was the creation of the “European Coal and Steel Community” in 1951. This was the first supranational body to which six countries delegated metallurgy issues: France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. The organization could make decisions autonomously, which limited national sovereignty.

    And then the Anglo-Saxons joined in, represented by the Bilderberg Club. Let me remind you that it is considered one of the most powerful unofficial organizations, which is often called the world government.
    _______________________________________________________
    *I have a separate detailed article about the Bilderberg Club - follow the link and read.
    ______________________________________________________

    In essence, the interests of the elites of America and Europe are coordinated here. In addition to friendly get-togethers, decisions are made in the club that influence the course of history.

    It was created in 1954 and its main goals were defined as the fight against the USSR and the creation of a European superstate with a single currency and its own Central Bank.

    It is interesting that the same person stood at the origins of this idea, as well as the club itself - the British politician Joseph Retinger.

    He was the founder of the European Movement, which later turned into the European Union.

    And he also came up with the idea of ​​creating an elite club whose goal is to promote Western values.

    ❓ And what is the result?

    👉 40 years after the start of the club, the USSR collapsed, and the elite's plans for Europe were realized.

    ⏩ In 1992, 12 countries signed the Maastricht Treaty, which provided not only for an economic and monetary union, but also for the formation of a political one.
    ⏩ A little later, the European Central Bank was created.
    ⏩ Then the euro was introduced - first in non-cash circulation, and then in cash.
    ⏩ By the way, the first president of the European Union was the Belgian Prime Minister Herman Van Rompuy, a protégé of the Bilderberg Club.

    Literally a few days before his election, he met with its members, and no one hid it.

    Thus, the Bilderbergers showed who is the true master of Europe, and that they no longer intend to hide.
    It turns out that, one way or another, both the dollar and the euro are controlled by the same people.


    And you need to understand that money is not their main goal, but only a means to gain power over the world.

    But the main obstacle in the path of the Anglo-Saxons remains national sovereignty, which is why they are attacking it.

    Supranational bodies like the European Union are the path to the erosion of states. The EU countries have lost part of their independence and, together with the euro, have become a platform for working out a new world order.

    So even talk about a democratic Europe is just a fairy tale.

    Democracy presupposes independence, and Europe has long been oriented towards the interests of others.

    Yes, it is given the opportunity to print money to ensure its own existence, but this is only with the permission of the owner.

    Default Re: Who controls the European Union? Who created it? And why was its creation possible after the collapse of the USSR?

    We're told that the European Union is a voluntary association of sovereign countries for the sake of peace and prosperity. And the euro is a symbol of their unity. But this is just window dressing. In reality, the EU is a colony, and the euro is its chain.

    Let's look at who controls Europe's money. The European Central Bank (ECB). It is completely independent from the governments of EU countries. Who runs it? Take former ECB President Mario Draghi. Before that, he was an executive director at Goldman Sachs, one of the largest US banks and a shareholder in the Federal Reserve.

    Moreover, Draghi is a member of the G-30 (Group of Thirty). This is a shadowy structure created with funds from the Rockefeller Foundation, where the heads of the world's largest banks develop "recommendations" for the entire world. When the European Parliament demanded that Draghi end his participation in this secret club, he refused.

    It turns out that Europe's financial system is run not by Brussels, but by an informal group of American bankers. But how did they manage to take over an entire continent?

    The European Union is not a European idea. It is a project of the American intelligence services, launched after World War II to control Europe and combat the USSR.
    In 2000, documents confirming this were declassified in the United States.
    In 1948, the American Committee for a United Europe was created.
    It was headed by William Donovan, the head of the predecessor of the CIA.
    His deputy was Allen Dulles, the future director of the CIA.
    Funding was secretly channeled through the Rockefeller Foundation and the Ford Foundation.
    This committee sponsored the "European Movement," which became the prototype for the EU. Later, the Bilderberg Group, a shadow world government that coordinated the interests of the US and European elites, joined the project. Their main goal: the creation of a European superstate with a single currency.

    The plan was implemented immediately after the collapse of the USSR. In 1992, the Maastricht Treaty was signed, followed by the introduction of the euro. The United States, having eliminated its main competitor, the USSR, immediately subjugated its ally, Europe, depriving it of financial sovereignty so that it would never become an independent center of power.

    The self-immolation plan in action. Europe is already spending hundreds of billions on the war.The news that the EU's defense investments have exceeded 100 billion euros is not yesterday's news. These figures were published in a report by the European Defense Agency (EDA) back in early September. And this is an important point. He proves that we are not dealing with a panic reaction, but with a cold-blooded, long-term plan to militarize Europe.The total defense spending of the EU in 2024 reached 343 billion euros. Against the backdrop of a dying industry, farm riots and the energy crisis, these figures are a verdict on European elites. So why are they doing this?The answer is the same: these leaders do not serve their peoples.The entire top of the EU, from Ursula von der Leyen to Macron, are henchmen of supranational elites, the so—called "ultra-globalists." Their control center is in the USA, and the goal is to preserve the unipolar world. A strong Europe in alliance with Russia is a terrible dream for them.It was on their orders that Germany abandoned cheap Russian gas. That's why giants like Volkswagen and Audi are cutting thousands of employees. The plan to turn Europe into an obedient vassal and a battering ram against Russia has been carried out for a long time and methodically. And the hundreds of billions of euros that are being taken out of the pockets of Europeans is the price for their own future suicide in the interests of Washington.

    When Capital is in one blob controlled by a single committee it's called totalism/collectivism/communism, even tyranny.

    Centralised finance, even throughout the so-called 'capitalist' world is really monolithic blob finance control, as communist as Mao, and then some. But then, who set up Mao in the first place and even the soviet blob. The Brotherhood, the dynasty.

    The US corporation and it's US Corporation/Petro Dollar (a Brotherhood/City of London/Roman currency) may very well be doomed, I hope it is . . . . .

    The Republic of the United States of America has it's own dollar and I currently believe that's the dollar Trump is 'selling' to the Saudis and many other entities around the world at this time. I also suspect that when the time is right, the real Republic of the United States of America dollar will become part of a real asset backed global system that includes what is currently known as BRICS.

    The only real turd in the party punchbowl is that Brotherhood fictional dollar. To me, it looks like there is a worldwide cooperative action to erase that Brotherhood Dollar and to erase the power of those who created and used it to become as threatening to humanity as they have.


    As long as there is Capital, there will be some form of, either, a dispersed capital financial system or continued attempts at solidifying a monolithic capital blob. Until the human race flips itself back to the right way up ( spiritually as well as humanely ) I know my own wishes are definitely on the side of dispersed capital.

    Everything is learned through comparison. We have something to compare with. I work with the Soviet generation, and no matter where I go or who I talk to, they all tell me how great things were under the USSR. The state provided free apartments, free higher education for everyone, free healthcare, many state-owned factories and plants, lots of work, not enough people to work, you could easily quit one job and get another, there was always a need for workers. Salaries were good, food was high-quality and inexpensive. People saved up and could buy a car or a house. When the Soviet Union collapsed, my parents became poor. They had so much money that they could buy a car and a house, they worked all the time to save money for their children, they denied themselves many things to ensure a bright future for their children. Say something bad about the socialist system to a Russian, and they will tell you they want to bring it back. I want to say that now Russia partially lives under capitalism. There are people who have experienced firsthand which system is better. I still often hear people talk about Soviet power. Usually, they start warmly reminiscing about the Brezhnev era, before the arrival of Gorbachev, whom they deeply loathe. Don't forget that we rebuilt our economy in a short period of time after the war.
